Not necessarily definitive, but here it is anyway:
http://avherald.com/h?article=40738955/0027
Highlights:
-loss of power and bang occured at around V1 speed (maximum speed, at which decision to reject takeoff can be safely taken).
-Two seconds after the bang all four engines were brought to idle and the airplane decelerated "vigorously", the slow down continuing until the final position 300 meters past the runway end. According to FDR thrust reversers were not used in the deceleration.
-The examination of the airframe and structures did not reveal any catastrophic damage prior to the final impact, when the airplane fell about 4 meters before coming to full stop just before the railway tracks. The airframe broke up in three parts upon that impact.
Discuss.
